Last night’s Impact is sitting at a robust 1.55 rating on Cagematch (basically the same score a test pattern would get) and people are writing term papers in the reviews.

When you want Flair so bad you knock off your own hat

This dive (that was in the ECW tv intro forever) is still so crazy to me, it’s like RVD had a rocket pack on

No greater thoughts here but I remember being at a Dynamite taping and Kazarian wrestled Ted Goodz in an Elevation match. It’s early and the crowd is filing in, so clear as day I hear this guy scream in the most Boston accent possible HEY FRANKIE GO FUHCK YAHSELF
Frankie Kazarian is the NEW TNA World Champion!

Mid-Atlantic crowd shot from 1983. I don’t think wrestling has ever made me this excited. Hell, I don’t think *anything* has gotten me this excited. This is for an Angelo Mosca match btw

I was down on the Blood and Guts concept and felt for this year they were stipulations that needed a match and not the other way around, but damn if this wasn’t a fun night all around

Can’t fault the effort there, some really gnarly bumps and big time bleeding. Too cute in parts (but not as much as I feared)

Blood and Guts Bingo

I think AEW should swap out Blood n’ Guts for a Cibernetico. Do it Chikara style so there’s one winner and they get a title shot at a PPV. You can base it around a feud and have wrestlers recruits teammates, because there’s incentive to be in it. Makes for a good yearly event.

Damn this looked so good

Didn’t go see Cena in Boston last night but I did the math & I’ve seen him live 18 times since 2003 so I scratched that itch. It would have been 19 but he got a concussion so instead of Punk vs Cena at a house show I saw Punk vs Big Show in a lumberjack match (that ended in a DQ)

Incredible flex from Rick Rude having the WCW roster on his tights and I BEAT ‘EM ALL written on his butt

Salute to this maniac who painted nWo on the top of his head and was immortalized on Nitro.

WWE house show I attended 22 years ago today. The wrestling ws quite good for a house show, especially the main event and the WGTT/Spanky&London match (I distinctly remember they did time calls in that match for some reason). Remains the only time I have seen Ultimo Dragon live.

It was cool when WCW had so many teams they could do a top 11 list, although things admittedly drop off a cliff starting with team #9

WWE Vault uploaded the Crunch Classic Coliseum video with these results:

Money Inc vs Bossman/Virgil: pinfall
New Foundation vs Nasties: DQ
Undertaker vs Bulldog: pinfall
Texas Tornado vs Model: DQ
Anvil vs Skinner: DCO
Natural Disasters vs Duggan/Slaughter: DQ

Made my contribution to the Major Toy Drive - Will Ospreay figures with a listing of Cagematch bouts rated 9.0 and above I expect them to watch

(Kidding, of course - just giving is the most important facet but I went with a Cody and Roman, seems the kids would enjoy those)

I’m sure this was an accident but rigging the top rope to break would be a cool way to get someone like Powerhouse Hobbes over

Big night last night for huge dudes punching through vertical surfaces

Just a thanks to @joegagne.bsky.social for an awesome Season of Giving submission that put me in a festive mood!
